Hawaii Legislature Will Decide on National Popular Vote Plan in July

Hawaii’s legislature had passed SB 1956, the National Popular Vote Plan, in April. But Governor Linda Lingle had vetoed it. Since then, the Senate overrode her veto. On May 3, the Hawaii legislature adjourned, before the House had voted on whether to override the veto. The legislature will return in July to finish considering which vetoes to override. At that time, the House will vote on SB 1956. If the House does vote to override, Hawaii will join Maryland as one of the states that has approved the Compact.

  1. Hi,

    I haven’t seen it reported anywhere else that the House will reconvene in July to consider this issue. Where are you getting this information?
